G&H mount welded on and machined.

Welded and machined? I can see the screws and pins but no evidence of welding. Looks for all the world like a typical G&H attachment protocol.

It sure looks welded and machined to me. I will double check.

Gary D. is correct.

G&H attached the bases with tapered pins & screws then dressed them down flush w/the outside of the base & on the inside of the action rail.

They did such a nice job you need to look very closely to see where the pins & screws are but in your photo of the inside of the action rail you can faintly see them & usually you can also see them on the side of the base if you get light on it @ the correct angle because the pins & screws take the bluing a bit differently than the base.

On many of G&H bases installed outside of the G&H shop the screw heads are not dressed down & are visible.

Thanks guys I was not aware of this. I have learned another bit of information on this rifle.
Any additional information is greatly appreciated.

I don't know who did the stock, but the sidemount was installed with the same kind of care and craftmanship that Griffin and Howe did.

Thank you for the feedback.

I agree with Gary D, it is my understanding they were mounted with 2 screws and 2 tapered pins. The pins were finished off flush, after having been tightly driven in. From previous postings here, I think on some the screw heads were finished off flush as well.
